Freezing rain warning issued for Prince Edward Island

The good news is that the bone chilling temperatures have eased, but the bad news is that Environment Canada has issued a freezing rain warning for Prince Edward Island calling for an extended period of freezing rain on Monday.

This is a warning that an extended period of freezing rain is expected in these regions. Monitor weather conditions..listen for updated statements.

A developing low pressure system over the U.S. midwest will track across the Great Lakes tonight and will intensify as it tracks into Southern Quebec on Monday. This system will push a strong warm front across the region on Monday. An extended period of freezing rain is likely ahead of this warm front over the island beginning Monday morning before very mild air behind the front changes precipitation to rain in the afternoon.
